This attention to detail and careful stewardship protects your investment.
GARDEN DESIGN
Garden spaces for children should offer endless opportunities for learning and exploration. As we design, we will keep in mind the size and energy levels of the little ones playing there. We want all kids to feel safe and sheltered in their special garden spaces.
GARDEN SOLUTIONS
Hanselman Landscape provides lasting solutions for some of the most overlooked garden problems. We install zoned irrigation systems that save hours of watering time and are more cost-effective with water usage. We also install heavy-duty night lighting systems that enhance safety and beauty and extend garden use into the evening hours. Our surface water management methods keep water away from the walls of your home while saving your topsoil with creative, attractive, naturalized solutions.
STONEWORK & HARDSCAPING
Boulders and natural stone provide the visual appeal of “mountains,” “cliffs,” and “plateaus” experienced on coastlines and mountain ranges throughout the world. Stonework and hardscape also extend the home’s indoor living space through terraces, patios, and paths.
These methods can also be used to impose grades with retaining walls and provide the mass to assist in managing water erosion.
SWIMMING POOL GARDENS
Hanselman Landscape designs swimming pool gardens to be a natural contributor to the entire garden and home environment. In the heat of summer, it should be a fun, relaxing, memory-building activity center of seasonal home life. In times of non-use, a pool should provide the peace and rest of a tranquil pond or reflecting pool.
WATER FEATURES
Many Hanselman Landscape gardens include water features. They are intended to add the sound of burbling water and the levity of birds playing to the garden experience. We achieve this through well-constructed ponds and pond-less options like Tsukubai, which give long-term performance and enjoyment.
CARE & MAINTENANCE
A thoughtfully designed and maintained garden can provide generational beauty that increases as time passes. Hanselman Landscape offers experienced, skilled, and knowledgeable technicians that maximize the garden’s current beauty and continually tend the garden for long-term flourishing.
PLANT NURSERY
Hanselman Landscape has a small nursery of specimen trees and shrubs. This nursery provides us with a stock of plants grown and cared for specifically to be reliable and attractive in a mature garden – not just at the point of sale. It also allows Hanselman Landscape to offer sizes and varieties uncommon in the mid-Atlantic area.

Testimonials
What surprised us most was how much more we love our home since Hanselman Landscape began working here! In addition to the beautiful new backyard oasis they created, they are here regularly to care for our plants, turning existing shrubs that we thought were worthless into beautiful, valuable specimens.
Our needs were to have as much privacy as possible from neighboring homes. Everything was done to perfection. This was the first time in a while (even with building a new home) that we gave the job to someone and never, ever had to go over again and again what was to be done.
Words do not serve well to express the sense of serenity and pleasure which your fine work evokes. I would liken the feeling to that of walking alone through a great museum.
I can’t even put into words how much I love my new yard. Hanselman Landscape did an outstanding job–changing an ugly piece of land into a serene and beautiful garden. The workmanship of Hanselman Landscape’s employees is of the highest quality.
Hanselman Landscape has helped us re-landscape our property over the past 3 years. James has a way of guiding you through your own garden, taking in the vantage points, and uncovering your vision (even though you didn’t know you had one)!
We liked the way James (Hanselman) explained and introduced the suggested plantings, actually showing us leaf samples. We needed and appreciated his guidance. Thanks for adding to our enjoyment of our home with your creative landscaping.
